All right.

We would be happy to get your comments.
>> my name is michelle clark, the managing attorney at --
Commissioner Daugherty and Sonleitner visited us -- trying to get in the three
minutes -- a few months ago to kind of get to know the new programs. One of
the items that you will consider this afternoon in your executive session
is item number 49. We leave our office space from Travis County right now
and the lease is set to expire September 30th of this year. And it's my understanding
that after consulting with pat ford in the real estate department that her
recommendation will be that the county extend our lease through December of
2005 with 120-day termination provision. What we have been drying to do when
we -- trying to do when we first learned it was possible that the county would
terminate our lease at September 30th of this year was to try to find a property
to purchase in Travis County that would provide the space requirements that
we have and still give us a location that was accessible to our clients and
the community of poor people who need legal services in Travis County. We
have not been able to find anything that would be available to move in by
the end of this year because a lot of the properties that are within our price
range and have the appropriate number of square feet are going to require
some rehab and some retrofitting. But we are confident that by December of
2005 we will find a property that is suitable to move into. And would very
much appreciate your extending our lease through December 31, 2005. I would
be happy to answer any questions, but I certainly wanted to you have our input
before you considered this in executive session.
>> questions? Thank you very much. We'll continue the partnership.
